“…First, there must be no primary or concurrent primary tumor in the large salivary gland or the small salivary gland. Second, there should be evidence of osteolysis but complete cortical bone, and finally a positive histological diagnosis of salivary gland tumors [5,6]. Although the clinical and radiological features of this case show dental origin, the histopathological evidence is the gold standard for the final diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma.…”

Introduction: Salivary gland tumors account for 3% of head and neck tumors, often in the salivary glands, such as the parotid gland and the salivary gland. The most common pathological type is pleomorphic adenoma.Case Report: The salivary gland tumors, which occurred in the jaws of the jaw, were developed from the glandular tissue in the jaws of the jaw, and the clinical and imaging examinations made the lesion similar to that of the dental source, and it was easy to be confused with other diseases in the clinical diagnosis. Conclusion:This paper reports a rare pleomorphic adenoma of the maxilla.

Introduction: The most common major salivary gland neoplasm is the Pleomorphic adenoma. Only 10% of the pleomorphic adenoma occur in minor salivary glands. 42.8% to 68.8% of cases with intraoral lesion occurs in the palate. Here we present a rare case of a pleomorphic adenoma masquerading as a lesion of odontogenic origin. Case report presents a male patient who reported with a chief complaint of swelling in the upper left tooth region since 3 months. Panoramic radiograph revealed shadow of a soft tissue swelling in the left maxillary posterior region with destruction and resorption of the alveolar process. Radiographic differential diagnosis of benign odontogenic/non-odontogenic cysts or tumours, benign minor salivary gland tumours were considered. Excisional biopsy was carried out and the lesion was removed in total up to the periosteum and the overlying mucosa and sent for histopathologic examination, which suggested pleomorphic adenoma. Conclusion: Pleomorphic adenoma is a benign neoplasm which has excellent prognosis with a cure rate of more than 95%. However, periodic long term follow up is mandatory.
